Well, take $500 of that, buy a few cases of beer, come pick me up (long drive, maybe get 3 cases), and we'll talk about it! *chuckling*

Love it!!! Great idea, scoop me up too while your at it! Or you can get in touch with rotors online and see what they have. I have priced out some items from them and they are very competetive!:cheers:

Actually I would also like to know what other people who have modified or changed their brakes would recommend.

i would check out the dba rotors and use a zo6 caliper and as always carbotech performance brakes.

:drool5: :drool5: I just put on rotors from powerstop They were real cheap and were zinc coated and I had talked to other people that had put them on their cars Very happy with them so far ( maybe 1000 miles) I also used Akebono ceramic pads car stops great! I did some homework on both and asked a lot of people on ebay that had bought rotors from companies on ebay and these were the most satisfactory I bought them from a company on ebay but I called them directly can get name if you want. For all four normal size was like $200.00!! Bear is like $2000.00! Anyway both powerstop and the ebay company are out of Illinois Drilled & slotted by the way For looks I would'nt mind changing calipers in back and a size larger rotor though only for looks Car stops great My 94 vette I havr just normal rotors and Bosch ceramic pads and they are by far the best brakes I've ever had Akebono are top of the line pads. Save some of that money I'm closer to you and I'll drink the beer! Brador!! Hmmmm Brador!! How come I can't put slobering smiley guy here?

You sure don't want ME installing them! *LOL*

Blackhorse, looks great man!
Thanks DChamp. Well if I knew that case of beer would got me some help I would had bought you a case of beer :cheers: ......... Bears were higher but they look great .The stock breaks stopped great to .I like the looks of the Bear 2 piece rotors drilled & cross cut.I put ceramic AC Del co pads on mine for around $1300. & the backs was 14" fills up wheel..:patriot:

Well any way you cut it you should be able to get a nice set of brakes that are very much in your budget!:cheers:
